Let Me Show You My Town | Ogden, UT 

22:03 There’s my home… behind that building in the right. I was born in Payson because they were remodeling the Springville hospital in ‘69. We moved to Heber when I was a month old, shortly after my grandpa died. My dad built three *Mr G’s Gas & Goodies* - two in Salt Lake and the one in Heber. My grandma (f) lived in Springville her whole life. My grandpa (m) lived in Salt Lake and my grandma (m) lived in North Ogden. We moved to Mountain View & Lyman, WY (Fort Bridger Airport) when I turned five and moved to Ogden when I turned 19.

Tim, I knew your Grandmother. I delivered the Ogden Standard Examiner newspaper to her and grew up directly through the block on Darling Street. I remembered your Grandmother had a lynx and it scared me to death each time I would go newspaper bill collecting in the late 1960s. She and my Mother were good friends. I know Gene.

My first visit to U.S was to Ogden, Utah 😍😍😍stayed for three months and i wish i had known people to show me around while i was there, but anyways...most definitely will save up to visit again. Thank you for the vid.

Thanks for the tour. I enjoyed it.

Been here 8 years. Live right downtown and love it! Good video!

I love Ogden. The place where you live is what you make of it

Thank you! You did a great job.

Very Nice!! Love the Tour!!!!!!!

I was one of the first 3 campus bus drivers in 1987 or so. Driving from the events center free patking to the campus. The busses were scary bad. You could smell the burning oil and I even had a battery crack and spray fumes everywhere. Lived in Ogden area for 30+ years. Still remember the officers club at DDO and 25th street when it was super scary. Ogdens come a long way, I miss it. Surprised cruising is back, it was big in 83 when I moved there, but cops shut it down in the 90s. PS you forgot to mention the Tiffany video filmed at the Ogden City Mall

Beautiful place ,love Ogden Utah soo beautiful place thanks for sharing

Currently living in Ogden Utah. Nice tour

Great video! I moved to Ogden with my parents and brother when I was two from Baltimore Maryland. have lived here ever since and I think it’s beautiful I’m reading a lot of comments about drugs and gangs. in Ogden’s Defense all I can say is birds of a feather flock together. keep the videos coming.

I miss "O" town. Grew up there, attended Polk, Mount Ogden, Ogden High and Weber State. Great place!

This is the first time since the mid 60s that I laid my eyes on this beautiful town.Progress has caught up with ogden cause I have watched the video two times and there is not places that i can remember with the exception of the train station.Since I seen this video, there is an urge growing inside of me to visit the place where I spent must of my youth.Great memories, great people, lots of friends.Thanks

I was born and raised here but I've lived out East for about 20 years. This was an awesome video and it made me nostalgic. Thanks for the great content.

The. Street fest was always a blast

I went to WSU for my undergraduate. Missing there soooooo much! Thx man for posting this

Well done sir! I love O-Town! I have so many good memories there. Now I live not far from it!

The sound is just fine, all of it is. Thanks again.

your driving video makes me want to do one up here in North Idaho.

This was v dope thanks

Thank you Tim for your easy going no none sense video nice to see where the orchards settled all those years ago happy days john

My mother called it the million dollar high-school. She didn't go there it was on 25 and Monroe. That was the old Ogden high-school.

Thanks Tim! Me and my family love Ogden and hope to see you around:)

Thats home for me!! I love Ogden 🤪

Thank you 😊

Great tour Tim! I have lived in Ogden since 2015 and I love it. My grandma used to visit her sister in Ogden when I was a kid and I loved visiting from Tooele. Always felt like a great place and I love living here.

Great tour. Thank you :). Will be visiting soon, once the border reopens. Have friends in Weber, UT. Greetings from Toronto, Canada!

Thanks for the video! I love Ogden. Moved down to Sandy last year and I miss Ogden!

I moved here in 1988 from Spokane,WA and personally I really like it here,I've had a really good time here, never had any problem with any body or.anything love it here

Grew up in Ogden and my 3 kids born in Ogden and grew up here as well. Great place!

gracias! muy interesante

I always feel something special coming over 24th ST bridge.

Good ol'' O-Town! Awesome video. Thanks for taking us around. I've been gone since 2003, but I sure do miss a lot of things about "Home".

Really cool video, Tim! I'm actually up in PV, but I usually just say I live in Ogden. I love walking 25th Street on the weekends and visiting Lavender Vinyl and eating at Craftburger. I learned a few things from your video, since I've only been in Utah since 2018. Ogden is definitely a neat place. Although I have my gripes with Utah and really miss Washington state, I'm glad I ended up in the Ogden area of all places in Utah. I just love the artsy, historic vibe in Weber County compared to other areas of the state.

Great video!

I love this town state the whole thing I miss O-town so much moved away from there 3 months ago and I had to pause it because I wanted to see the mountains. I really miss it there.

Man that was a great tour of Ogden Utah!! It’s so big. I hardly ever get out of my small town Carmine, Texas only has like 200 people here so nice to see a new state. I love all the snow and mountains!!

Hmmm I grew up in Ogden in the 70s. Grew up on Jefferson street by the Ogden library (Lester park). It’s a great place. Been all over usa and I still love Ogden utah the best...

I'm 48 I have lived in Ogden my whole life.. Ben lomond high was my high school..the old stop and shop the old grand central and Ogden mall days..I've always loved the mountains I look at them everyday ..love my Ogden

I absolutely love Ogden bro best place I ever lived

Thank you for making this video. I’m moving to Ogden from Northern Colorado in about 4 months and don’t know anyone there. I’m 73 and somewhat nervous about being able to make friends out there. I sure hope I grow to love Ogden as much as I love where I live now.

I lived in Ogden in 1961-63. Loved living out west, from the Detroit area. My parents started College at Weber State. The public school teachers were on strike, so my mom enrolled us in St Paul Lutheran Church School. on Harrison Blvd. We lived a few doors down from the Eccles Art Center (a house back then I think) and would ride our bikes to school each day and my mom would ride hers to class also. Lived at the old Mill Stream Motel for a month till we got a house on Washington Blvd. Then we moved to Harrisville Road in the country. We moved back to Detroit when Thiokol laid my dad off. I hated moving back, loved Utah.

I am in Ogden. We should get together, I am interested in the history of this town. I love it here

I moved to Ogden in 2009. I have to be honest I was really nervous about moving here because I heard about it's bad reputation but because of my divorce it's where I could afford to buy a home. I have loved my time living here! I live in the historic area. I guess it's what you make of it. I have the best neighbors and we get together often especially in the summer for dinners. I have loved doing some volunteer work here. It was fun learning more about trains from the visitors around the world during the sesquicentennial of the transcontinental railroad, helping during the Home Makeover show and the farmer's market, Harvest festival and Christmas parade. I raised my boys in Sandy so it's great being as close to the mountains. I also like that it's close to SLC and on days that I usher at the theaters there I can take the Frontrunner and Trax to the venue downtown and back. The price of real estate is going crazy and we're seeing more people from SLC moving here. There are some really good restaurants and I like that in Ogden you may have the chain fast food places but otherwise it's local restaurants. Anyone that says we don't have good places to eat probably hasn't tried a lot. Some can be pricey but there's a good restaurant scene.

I bought a station wagon for 175$ from Ogden an it got me to Pensacola Florida.i miss my home state utah. Thanks for the videos.enjoy utah some miss it🙏😄

I love learning about Ogden and this area. The history is gold to me!👍. Thank you for the tour and information

Dude, thank you for this awesome tour. I'm moving to Hill AFB and Ogden in 2024 and I cannot wait. I'm from New England and have been living in Virginia for 7 years. I can't believe how awesome Utah is! Can't wait to move out there.

Great video. A nice looking town stuck in the mountains like it is. I'm in Mobile Alabama on the gulf coast I live more in the woods

Thank you for featuring Ogden and defending it. My father grew up there and my family have been there since around 1850. My grandfather worked at Farrs Ice Cream right after WWll. My great grandfather was a sheep farmer in Wyoming. Wonder if he did any business there at the stockyard?? Shout out to Burley Burger!

Thanks for the memories. I lived in Ogden from 1950 to 1964. I lived i

I MISS OGDEN MYSELF. I MOVED AWAY BACK IN MID 60'S AFTER GRADUATING FROM BEN LOMOND HIGH. I HAVE BEEN WATCHING SEVERAL RU-vid VIDEOS LATELY ABOUT OGDEN'S HISTORY. I LOVED WATCHING YOUR VIDEO FOR SOME OF THE HISTORY I DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT LIKE THE OGDEN MALL, I DON'T REMEMBER ABOUT AND THE OGDEN SIGN OVER WASHINGTON. ALSO, I USE TO CLIMB AND HIKED TO THE PEAKS FROM MORGAN CANYON TO MT. BEN LOMOND. I ALSO, CAMPOUT THERE IN THE MOUNTAINS. I REALLY DID LIKE YOUR VIDEO. MAKE SOME MORE VIDEOS WITH MORE HISTORY IF YOU CAN IN THE FUTURE. THANKS.

Many moons ago, I studied at Weber State. Haven't seen Ogden for quite a while. Thanks for the vid.

Definitely do another video when the trees are in bloom or during the fall colors so people can see the beautiful "tree tunnels" in our neighborhoods... And go up the trails to show the landscape views. The park on Buchanan just north of 21st (Thomas Park) gives a beautiful view, especially at sunset.

I lived in Ogden in the 80s & early 90s Absolutely fantastic place to live I have always considered the Wasatch front my home Moving back next year

I know one of the security guards that works at the city building. I will ask him about it next time I see him!

I lived in Ogden for 5 years. In honestly I always thought Ogden was a old rundown town and encountered some the strangest ghetto creepy and rudest people I ever met. But 25th street and union station always reminded me of old Town Sacramento because I grew in Sacramento. I’ve been living in the suburb of Dallas for the past 5 years. Anyway great video. Hope you make more video’s about Ogden.👏

I Love Ogden. O.H.S. 96'

Audio sounds fine to me!

Great video. Wish to see a bit more of the driving though. See some of my walking videos from the area.

You spoke about the jail being on the top floor... my Grandfather was a police officer for 20 years in Ogden, then another 20 years in the Sheriff's Dpt... (retired from both). He was stabbed 5 times in the elevator transporting a prisoner upstairs at the jail. He lived to be 87 years old. : )

Hi I used to work for the Weber County Nutrition services 😊❤

Kevin Costner! 😊 Nice country!

I enjoyed your video. Have a nice lives in ogden, I guess North Ogden right at the mouth of the Canyon. I do have a suggestion for a video for you to do. Go up to Willard and make a video of the Amish store there. I live in Payson, And we have taken many people up to that store because they are very interesting in the Amish ways. In fact I think I'm going up this coming Tuesday. I'm going to subscribe to your channel because I find you pretty interesting. Have a great weekend

We are going to Ogden in February for 8 months for work. ❤

My ancestor,Lorin Farr was the founder of Ogden,Utah,Tim!I was there back in 1987 when they had the Wildcat Stadium for this event called Sky Concert!"Weird"Al Yankovic,the dynamite lady,King Krunch,Robbie Knivel & The Monkees appeared here!There were fireworks afterwards!

Just want to throw out a couple more movies that have some history in Ogden. The gas station scene in dumb and dumber was filmed right where you started your video just off I-15 on 24th. Gas station is no longer there though. 3 o’clock high was filmed at Ogden high school, the big fight scene at the end they even invited a lot of students to be a part of. The sandlot was also filmed just off the Ogden river at the old rodeo stadium on 16th street. I always like to show those spots to people when they come and visit :)

Nice Tour around your city. I am thinking of migrating to USA and if so i need a place with real less ppl and much nature surroundings. I am from Germany, living since 20 years in the tropics in Thailand and it was enough heat for me here, so i need something to calm down and a place where they sale good beers ;) what i always wonder is how bad the streets looking in the USA. I was seeing it first when i worked in Detroit MI 12 years ago, you never see this in the TV series, except you are looking for it. If we had streets in Germany or even in Thailand like this, our population will get really mad :D :D have fun and keep up the good work, Ogden should give you a medal for attracting ppl ;)

I graduated from OHS but live in Valdosta, Georgia now. I grew up at the very top of 24th Street. My house, Dr Tanners house and then the mountain.

I use to live union gardens. I miss ut but the rent is like California

Tim..Thanks for the ride.☺Is the round table for train still there?

The boot legger tunnels do still exist plus fort buena ventura! Ogden has a huge history! It's also growing at an alarming rate now in 2021 tons of apartment building's being built! We now do not have enough grocery stores & most businesses have moved out of Ogden! Not many places to shop for clothes & things their all in Riverdale! But Riverdale is connected to Ogden! Plus you've missed alot on the north side of town? Lived here my whole life my parents have too! There's alot of change downtown from department stores to the Ogden mall to an outside mall! Out here where cherry orchard usto be! Is now a nature hike but for those of us who grew up here it's still Witches Hallow! 💖💖💖💖💖💖

I was born in Ogden at the Old Dee Hospital on 24th and Harrison. I worked in downtown Ogden (First Security bank bldg) form many years. Sad thing, the jobs did not pay well, I ended up working in Salt Lake City for 30 years. Living in southern Davis county. I still have family in the Ogden area. I love coming back to Ogden and seeing how it has changed. It is growing up and now has a bigger population than ever before. It just needs more professional jobs and buildings downtown. I sure hope the new owner of the old bank bldg. can make it pop! Good luck Ogden.

As a local I enjoyed the content. Lol.

Do you have a video of the big storm in September 2020?

Where was Woolworths in the 1960's .. I seen and old advertisement with the address of 366 and Wall Ave.. I remember used to say a number then And Wall

You missed some cooler areas on your tour but it was alright. It's nice to know people who live here and love the historic value.

I just looked up Three o clock High the movie. It was absolutely Weber High but they give LA the credit for filming location.

great video I AM OLD NATIVE OGDEN STILL HERE

I'd lived in Ogden for 49yrs and I tell you all the places that used be around Ogden

My family lives in ogden Utah

Note: the John M. Browning museum is located in union station.probably the greatest firearms inventor the world has ever known.

I've been missing home pretty bad and this video really felt like I was driving around again. I was in Clinton Utah for 11 years but the housing affordability has become ridiculous. I had to leave the state but I plan on visiting again next year :)

❤

Back in the early 80’s we used to find ninja stars at the railroad train tracks

I like Prairie Schooner there, i live there already it's a cool place.

As beautiful Ogden can be, there is a big drug and gang problem there. Few of my friends have died two of them happened at the same house... I used to be an addict lived in Ogden, I am almost 7 years clean and im proud I got out of that town and mess it has in it. One thing I can never get away from though is the taco lady infront of the municipal building 😂😂 love her tacos.

Grew up in Ogden and hate it

Next time, Show more of the city and the Ogden Temple Square. and the new development on Washington Blvd.

Thanks for the video. I'm moving up to the SLC area in May, and I was thinking of choosing Ogden. How easy is it to bike around the town? I didn't see many bike lanes in your video.

Browning mansion is on 27th adams the south east corner

Just bought a house out here in Ogden I love the area, California was worse this is suburbs to me.

I rep the 801, but we're still cousins!

👍

I drove through Ogden the last few years for a convention in Salt Lake City. Man the homeless people in Salt lake was scary. People trying to follow me on the streets, calling out. Ogden seemed like a sleepy Norman Rockwell town. Snowville to Ogden miles of cones as they were fixing the roads.

You missed Fort Beauna Ventura, Ogden Botanical Gardens and a few other fantastic places in Ogden.

Class of 87 canyon high ... dragon's

the stand also was filmed there from steven king

I wish you had shown us Hill air force base so we could maybe see more because our newest jets are there F35? i think?

What’s the stadium next to the movie theater?
